Late SOFR/Treasury Option Roundup: Better Puts on Net

US TSYS

Better put trade drove option volume Monday after more mixed trade overnight. Overall volumes, however, were muted as underlying futures see-sawed higher in narrow range. Puts picked up after a mixed open, accounts fading the modest rally in underlying futures through the second half.
